I have a very similar problem.
About a week ago I updated to iTunes 7 (7.1.0.59, if it makes a difference), and ever since then I haven't been able to sync the music I've put in the library onto my iPod. The syncing process will take place, but it will give me an error message immeditaly afterwards that says "The ipod "Garrett's ipod" cannot be synced. The file or directory is corrupted and ureadable."
I uninstalled and reinstalled itunes (I had to, whenever I update my itunes I lose the capability to burn CDs unless I reinstall) and restored my ipod, both to no avail.
Can anyone help? I don't even know what that error message means.
Thanks a million.

Itunes wont let me update my ipod

I tried putting too many songs on my ipod and it told me there isnt enough room so itunes made a seperate playlist with every song in it (i forget why). so i left the playlist there, deleted some videos for more space and updated my ipod. everything was fine... i had all my songs at that point but my playlists were gone (the playlists were still in itunes)except for the one itunes made with every song in it.
i went into itunes and deleted that playlist and updated my ipod again. i found out later that it erased all of my stuff except for my photos.
now when i try to update it doesnt even try. it just says "songs on the ipod "my ipod" cannot be synced because all of the playlists selected for syncing no longer exist"
i dont see what the problem is
can someone help me out

while the ipod is plugged in, click on your Music tab.
you will currently have "Selected Playlists" selected. go through the list of playlists beneath that, and uncheck the one that you deleted from your iTunes sourcelist.

What do i do if my iPod touch 4g wont let me update or download any apps?

what do i do if my iPod touch 4g wont let me update or download any apps and it keeps asking me to sign in to my apple acount?

- Try resetting the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- I would also try signing out of your account and signing back in. Go to Settings>Store to do that.

You need to add a valid payment method to your account. Purchasing and redeeming an iTunes gift card will work

Do you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1.
A 1G can only go to 3.1.3
A 3G only to 5.1.1

Disabling the computer's security software (firewall and antivirus) usually resolves that error.

How do you fix reeor -1 on an IPod touch that wont let me update or restore it

Error -1
Attempt to restore your iOS device two more times. If the issue is still unresolved, the device may need service.
The "device may need service" means a hardware problem. In that case make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
